When the Game Boy version trumps the console version...

[BEERS AND VIDEOS]

Battle Arena Toshinden (GB) > Battle Arena Toshinden (PS1)

SD characters, an actual story mode, and it plays like a long-lost NeoGeo Pocket game.

agreed 100%

BTW it's Game Boy. (2 words)

Corrected. That's what I get for posting between work meetings. ;o)

I played the crap out of that game! I remember buying it from Toys R Us for $5!

protips:

Game Boy
PlayStation
Xbox

Forgot another common typo: Mega Man [two words] it gets to me when I see it as one word

Forgot to add: Tetris? I played the GB version 100x more than the NES version

Bionic Commando was much better on Game Boy, apart from the loss of color.

It wasn't even really the same game anymore. It was totally different, although I'll agree it was more fun.

Edit: Wait, I just realized that you probably didn't mean Bionic Commando for GBC. In that case, I can't really comment, as I've only played the NES and Xbox 360 version of that game.

I've known that it's PlayStation, but it's faster just to type Playstation. And BTW, I believe it's actually XBOX, not Xbox. XBOX is how it's typed on the top of the system, anyhow.

There's not many, but two that come to mind:

Astroboy Omega Factor (GBA) >>>>>>> Astroboy (PS2)
Tetris (GB) >>>>> NES Tetris, unless you're talking Tengen Tetris, which is still the best version.
